Samsung keyboard issue on Android app

Open Dominique-Hb opened this issue 1 month ago • 3 comments

What happened?

I am experiencing an issue with the Android app on a Samsung s23 device. Typing on the keyboard triggers abnormal behavior. If I don’t specify that a block is text, I have to type a word and then a space, and the word gets deleted. When I edit a word in a text block, my new input deletes the text that follows. And same kind of other issues.

I found a workaround by switching from the Samsung keyboard to Google’s Gboard keyboard."

I can confirm that this is an issue for me as well, but only with the Samsung keyboard. It works fine with the Google Keyboard. I am running Android 15 on an S21, latest app and AFFiNE server version.

The issue is not confined to just the app. It also happens when using AFFiNE in the web browser (e.g. Brave, Chrome etc) on a device with the Samsung keyboard enabled. There seems to be a conflict between the auto correction of the Samsung keyboard (which replaces or rewrites the word when pressing SPACE or ENTER) and how this is handled by the AFFiNE input field. Disabling word suggestions on the Samsung keyboard "fixes" the issue. I'll check if there's something to be done on AFFiNE's side but from what I've researched this seems to be a widespread issue with the Samsung keyboard and it's word suggestion feature.
